Trosolwyg
Mae fy ymchwil yn canolbwyntio'n bennaf ar gyfraniad ffactorau genetig ac amgylcheddol i ddatblygiad seicosis a sgitsoffrenia.
Mae gen i ddiddordeb mewn gwahanu heterogenedd a dimensiwnoldeb sgitsoffrenia trwy nodi lluniadau ffenoteipig sy'n ddilys yn fiolegol.
Mae gen i ddiddordeb hefyd mewn ffarmacogenetics, yn benodol mewn perthynas â defnyddio clozapine a'r amrywiolyn genetig Duffy-nwl. Roedd fy PhD (a gwblhawyd yn 2016) yn canolbwyntio ar nodi rhagfynegwyr sgitsoffrenia sy'n gwrthsefyll triniaeth, ac achosion genetig niwmoffrenia a achosir gan clozapine, effaith andwyol prin y clozapine.
